But, day by day, I start questioning what those rights are. Voting? A TV? Property? Life and limb?
Basically, none of these are really provable. Human rights are just what we kinda feel we and others ought to have. Based on humanity's massive disregard for the same rights we hold up as inalienable (collectively, we honor exactly none of them), these rights are not only arbitrary, but also only a matter of convenience.
Justice demands only that humans be treated fairly and equally, but maybe that means we all just deserve pain and death. In fact, the quickest way to satisfy justice after humanity's many hideous acts is probably to kill everyone. This is incidentally also the best way to end human suffering.
I think my journey toward being a supervillain is progressing handily, in other news.
